The semi-private landing sets the elegant tone for this sprawling residence. A large welcoming foyer unfolds into an open-plan over-scaled living and dining room. The graceful flow that exists between these two adjacent rooms is ideal for entertaining. Gentle light from ten large windows brings a natural texture to this expansive space. This entertainer's dream dining room looks over historic, charming Henderson Place townhouses, and has custom-built cabinetry that houses a cocktail bar. The smartly planned, enclosed corner balcony home office is perfect for today's work lifestyle. The windowed kitchen delivers practically and aesthetically with good counter space, breakfast bar, plentiful custom cabinets and pantry storage. Top-tier appliances include a Viking refrigerator, two dishwasher drawers, a full-size washer, vented dryer and vented oven exhaust, If you're a fan of the open concept kitchen, this space can be reimagined - opened up to the grand living/dining space. A hallway off the entry foyer leads to the bedroom wing and provides access to the gracious powder room with exquisite marble console and Sherle Wagner fittings. The peaceful primary bedroom has five closets in addition to two walk-in closets and the ensuite marble bathroom features a steam shower. The well-scaled, cheerfully bright guest room also has an ensuite bathroom and has roomy closets, custom-built-in bookcases, shelves, and storage space that provides flexible functionality.
